SkiWelt Invests
9.3 Million for the best ski area – the SkiWelt – Funslope arena in Soll, toboggan run Astberg and even snow! The SkiWelt Wilder Kaiser Brixental for the coming winter season is investing not less than 9.3 million euros: modernized systems, extensions and improvements at the snow equipment and new facilities for even more fun and adventure in the winter holiday. Well invested millions, to the best ski area in the world (the SkiWelt was awarded with this title already four times) to do even better. Many new features will make you want a holiday in Austria’s largest contiguous ski area: the 4.5 kilometre-long toboggan run Astberg in the SkiWelt Ellmau/going receives an own snowmaking system and lighting for winter fun can continue even after the apres-ski. A new Funslope area for all freestylers on skis and boards will entice the kids this winter after Hochsoll. No less than three new Funslopes with an area of about five hectares offer 40 kicker and Rails of all Levels of difficulty, from beginner to Pro. An own Funslope for beginners gives it to the Salve Moss slope, a beginner – and a medium line on the Rinnerabfahrt. Modernization, it says this winter at the Sandra Chair car in Soll: the lift is completely renewed and given a parental control. So, so popular with families and ski schools ski paradise Hochsoll is even more family-friendly.
And for even better grooming four ultra-modern and Beary snowcats of the latest generation take their tracks in the snow: two in Scheffau, one in Brixen and Hopfgarten. Total not less than 69 snowcats now provide for perfect slopes in the SkiWelt. Of course putting on more snow this winter: with the construction of the storage pond Hohe Salve and the extension of the snow-making systems in all the municipalities in the SkiWelt, the slopes on the sunny side are still snow-sure and comfortable. The ongoing improvements pay for themselves: 2012 the SkiWelt was for the second time in a row by the ADAC ski guide to the Austria winner of the SkiPassIndex award: the award for the best value for money in the heart of the Alpine winter sports world.
